Definition: Lion
Lion \Li"on\ (l[imac]"[u^]n), n. [F. lion, L. leo, -onis, akin
to Gr. le`wn. Cf. Chameleon, Dandelion, Leopard.]
1. (Zo["o]l.) A large carnivorous feline mammal (Panthera leo
, formerly Felis leo), found in Southern Asia and in
most parts of Africa, distinct varieties occurring in the
different countries. The adult male, in most varieties,
has a thick mane of long shaggy hair that adds to his
apparent size, which is less than that of the largest
tigers. The length, however, is sometimes eleven feet to
the base of the tail. The color is a tawny yellow or
yellowish brown; the mane is darker, and the terminal tuft
of the tail is black. In one variety, called the maneless lion
, the male has only a slight mane.
